    Hi folks, first post here...so "hello" to all.

    I'm seriously considering a WR125 for my next bike. I'm concerned about the seat height, since I'm 5'8". Other than seat-height, everything I see, hear, and read about this bike seems to be perfect for me. So, of course getting the bike lowered comes to mind...prbly an inch. Anyone have this done? Were you happy with the results?

    FYI I'd be using LT Racing in Port Orchard. Les revalved my KX250 for woods and I loved the results.

    Thanks for any feedback.

    I'm 5'1" and Les did a fantastic job on my WR125!

    1", but I could have used another 1/2 or so.

    1" should be fine for someone 5'8" I'd think.

    Les did my 310 and lowered an inch...only bottomed it 1 time on a huge huge drop off that plopped you out of the sky with little foward and mostly down momentum.
